A Louisville Metro Council resolution recognizing the late Metro Councilwoman Judy Green, a Democrat who was removed from her 1st District seat in 2011 for violating ethics rules, has been withdrawn by its sponsor.

Instead of forcing a council vote on the resolution, which had sparked some opposition among the council members, its sponsor, Councilwoman Attica Scott, D-1st District, now plans to simply issue a proclamation recognizing Green. It would not require a council vote.
